Damian Lewis and Sophie Okonedo are joined by Jason Hughes and newcomer Archie Madekwe in the Tony Award-winning, darkly comic masterpiece, Edward Albee’s The Goat, or Who Is Sylvia? which runs for a strictly limited 12 week season from 24 March at the Theatre Royal Haymarket.

Martin is at the pinnacle of life: he has a loving wife and son, a hugely successful career as an architect, and the commission of a lifetime, but when he embarks upon an improbable and impossible love affair from which there is no return, he must face the dizzying, explosive consequences.

Former Royal Court Artistic Director Ian Rickson directs this provocative and fiercely funny Albee classic and is joined by an Olivier and Tony Award-winning creative team in Rae Smith (Set and Costume Design), Neil Austin (Lighting Design) and Gregory Clarke (Sound Design), with original music by ground-breaking musician PJ Harvey.

The play contains adult themes and very strong language so is therefore not suitable for children under 14 years. Schools age guide 16+.
